Albertus Magnus High School, also known as AMHS, Albertus, and Magnus, is a Catholic, co-educational high school located in Bardonia, New York, named after the German philosopher and theologian of the same name. It is the only Catholic high school in Rockland County, New York. Albertus Magnus High School is administered by the Dominican Congregation of Our Lady of the Rosary Sparkill, New York, which was founded on May 6, 1876 in New York City by Mother Catherine Mary Antoninus Thorpe. Albertus Mangnus High School is one of the many schools and missions in New York State, Missouri, Maryland, Montana, Pakistan, and Peru staffed by the Sparkhill Dominicans in their 130-year history. Over half of the student body participates in the many Extracurricular activities available at the school. ==History== At the request of Cardinal Spellman in the early 1950s, the Dominican Sisters of Sparkill founded Albertus Magnus High School. In July 1957 the property was purchased and thus began the journey of Albertus Magnus, the first Catholic secondary school in Rockland County. By September 1960, the new school and convent were ready for occupancy. Since the first graduating class in 1961, 7,189 students have had the privilege of receiving a quality education in a school dedicated to Catholic doctrine and Gospel values. A major emphasis of the curriculum is teaching Catholic doctrine, responsibility to the community, and spiritual growth. The school is accredited by the Board of Regents of the State of New York and received re-accreditation by the Middle States Association, Commission on Secondary Schools in April 2005. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Albertus Magnus High School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
